    Bullet Throw PPM

    Hello - Has anyone had luck with convincing one of their players to learn the Bullet Throw PPM? My team's highest-rated players for a long thrower is 15, so could it be that this rating has to be 16 or above for the player to agree to learn the move?

    Defence Line Problems

    3 quick points: 1. Have you tried setting individual instructions for your defensemen to close down in own area? That way they may not roam as far up, leaving space for another attacker to run behind you. 2. You can also try the limited defender role instead of the central defender role. 3...

    Post Your Frustrations

    Travelling for friendlies In my 2017 season, England and Italy are scheduled to play a friendly on 9/9. My squad (Darlington) is playing Man City on 9/3 - now check this out. My 4.5 star Italian national goalie is unavailable to me since he is travelling on 9/3 to join his Italy squad, while...

    One of the most frustrating things in game.

    that's standard rules in England - foreign players can be signed within 6 months of their expiring contract - you can sign someone from spain in january if their contract expires in june, but they can also do the same to one of your league's players. It can be frustrating to keep an eye on...

    Defensive Big Results - 4-2-2-2

    That's one of my base formations too - especially against a stronger team. I've used Darlington for the last 6 seasons, and am still building the quality and depth of squad that the Arsenal, ManU, Barcelona, etc., possess. So, my team is still a bit weaker than the top clubs. I tweak role and...

    retraining to a position

    Has anyone been able to successfully train a Sweeper to a "Natural" position? I've never seen a natural sweeper in a game, only accomplished. I know sweeper is a rare position, but was just curious, as I was going to test a new formation out in pre-season with 2 sweeeprs and one central...

    Post Your Frustrations

    Reply: z1co80's observations I have noticed the two things happening to you on my games as well, and it can be frustrating. I'm going to attempt to rationalize, though even in my own admission I may be stretching things a little. When introducing a sub, it can take a few minutes for the sub...

    Alberto Bueno - Valladolid

    I remember him from FM2010, as I did a career with Valladolid - I sold him for $7 million before Real Madrid could activate his buyback clause of $5 million. Was a decent player in 2010; but his stats are better in 2011. Does he still have the buyback clause attached to him at the start of the...

    Do You Consider Genie Scout Cheating?

    Genie Scout = Cheating if you're looking for players, not cheating if you're looking for coaches. Let me explain..... With coaches, yes, they have a CA/PA like players, but I don't really consider that too much when looking for coaches. When I look for coaches, I'm looking for the ones that...

    What's the difference between tour and friendly?

    I don't think much, in terms of finances, the fee for a single game is the same whether it's a friendly or part of a tour - it just allows you to schedule friendlies a little bit quicker - up to 4 games within a 14 day period.
